Sold new at Ray Hughes Chevrolet in Enterprise, Alabama, this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 shines in every aspect after a comprehensive Concours-quality restoration. Ford may have beaten Chevrolet to the pony-car market with the Mustang, but it was the Bowtie brand that defined performance in that category with the Z28. This Camaro Hi-Performance Certified example sets a very high standard in the restoration of these wonderful cars, showing close attention to such details as T3 headlights and correct pollution-controls equipment. Finished in deep code-Z British Green Metallic with white stripes, front and rear spoilers and a sharp black houndstooth interior, it was ordered with the desirable Z22 Rally Sport Package including special grille with vacuum-operated headlight covers, front valence-mounted parking lights and rear valence-mounted backup lights, bright lower body, wheel arch and belt reveal moldings, bright roof drip-rail moldings and RS badges inside and out. This Z28 is equipped with its MO-code 302 CI small-block V-8 exclusive to the model and matched to a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission and BU-code 3.73:1 Positraction rear end. In addition to the potent drivetrain aimed squarely at the Trans Am racing series, the Z28 package included special suspension, power front disc brakes, quick steering, a heavy-duty radiator with thermostatic fan, deep-tone mufflers and 15x6-inch Rally wheels with Goodyear Wide Tread GT tires. This beautiful Z28’s charms include the optional Z87 Custom Interior with special seat and door-panel trim, wood-grain accents, glove-compartment light, passenger assist handle, bright pedal trim, and a trunk mat. Soft Ray-tinted glass, a center console with U17 Special Instrumentation, wood-rimmed Sport steering wheel and a pushbutton AM radio complete the car’s generous option list.
